One tenant wants to break lease, the other doesn't - FL
Hi everyone,
So I have a tenant and boyfriend that separated and she wants to be removed from the lease. I read this post:

and I think it answered most of my questions. This is an inherited tenant from when we bought the property, so not everything was done the way I would have in placing them in the Unit. The one main issue that I want to make sure of is: On the lease, only she signed. Both her and the boyfriend are listed, but the boyfriend never signed the lease. She wants to break the lease now.
Basically I assume that he would have to be willing to break lease too, and pay early termination. Otherwise, they would stay until the end of lease or until eviction, whichever comes first. Right? Does it change anything that she is the only one to sign the actual lease?
Thanks!
